Summary

This study looks at whether reducing social media use and replacing that time with exercise, or practicing mindfulness, can help college students feel less anxious and depressed. About 300 students who use social media heavily will be split into three groups: one that does nothing different, one that practices mindfulness, and one that cuts social media and exercises instead. The study lasts two weeks, and researchers will check mood, well-being, and phone usage before, right after, and one week later.
